In [[computer science]], a '''channel system''' is a [[finite state machine]] similar to [[communicating finite-state machine]] in which there is a single system communicating with itself instead of many systems communicating with each other. A '''channel system''' is similar to a [[pushdown automaton]] where a queue is used instead of a stack. Those queues are called '''channels'''. Intuitively, each channel represents a sequence a message to be sent, and to be read in the order in which they are sent.
